Iron Blood Earl Riccianne

Chapter 1. Friends (2)

Lycaen nods, smiling at my question.

“Of course. I summoned you. ”

Huh? This guy's top half.... Oh, I was against that.

“Ze, are you serious? Then I must have been struck by lightning... ”

“Oh, no more misunderstandings. Your death has cost you everything. ”

Well, this means I can't be a jerk after all. Chet.

“Oh, by the way, why did you call me? ”

When I asked, Lycaen took a moment to speak calmly.

“There's a lot to hear before you talk about it. Would you like to hear it? ”

Well, I feel like there's something strange going on here. Besides, he summoned me here as a ghost. If there's a story an unusual person needs to hear with a serious face, then of course there's an unusual story, right?

“Well, there's plenty of time anyway. ”

“Hehe, what a pity. I don't have much time. ”

“What? No time? ”

“Oh, that's not the point. Now listen to me. ”

“Good.”

As I nodded and sat on the ledge, Lycaen tilted her head a few times as if she were remembering for a moment and slowly started talking.

“I should introduce myself first, right? My name is Lycaen Prokers. Riccianne is her name, Procus is her last name. It's the exact opposite of where you live. ”

It's strange to use the opposite first and last name. Don't you think this is important to your family?

“We need to start talking about our family first. Our family is Earl Procurus. All you need to know is that he's a pretty tall man for an Earl. ”

As expected, this guy was a hotshot and a dickhead.

“But only by identity, our Earl Frost has been running a stagnant course for several generations. Thanks to you, we are almost in ruins now.Only this castle and the territory have been reduced to nothing compared to the past. ”

A fallen family... It's similar to my family.

“So I had a goal of raising a family. ”

Huh? More and more like it. I nodded my head toward him without knowing it. It's not that I don't know the obligation given to someone born into a fallen family.

“But since I was a child, I have a mystical ability. ”

“Mysterious ability? ”

“It's the ability to summon souls. ”

Oh, by the way, I told him I called. Hmm, now that I think about it, I can't believe you're bringing in a soul! It is a peculiar ability because it is certainly mysterious.

“When I was a child, I accidentally summoned a soul and played with it. Until then, I didn't know that the person I was playing with was a human soul. By the time I got to know the world and spent my childhood like that, I thought I'd use my abilities to start a family. ”

To raise a family with the ability to summon souls.... You want to be a fortune-teller? Well, how the hell are we supposed to use that?

“My ability to summon my soul is not just to summon someone at random, it is also possible to summon a soul with certain conditions. For example, if you want the soul of a knight with a great sword, you can summon one. ”

“Hmm? You mean you summoned souls and made them teachers? ”

“You're quite perceptive. Yes, since I was very young, I summoned many souls and learned a lot from them. By the way, my swordsman's name is Yi Yul. ”

Interest rate? I've heard that name a lot......

“Huff! You can't mean the interest rate of the North Jinsung? ”

“You know him. ”

“You have no idea! He said it was the best writing in the history of gold! But……. ”

“Yes. He was framed for his cruelty and suffered an unjust death. ”

Jealous bastard!

With the North Korean Defender's interest rate, there is no one in the military who does not know. As the one who received His Majesty's love, it was the best description that there was nothing clever, tactful, shameless or empty. Until you die with a ridiculous accusation.

By the way, you've made a great person a teacher. Again, I hate swords. But I'm going to die of envy because I learned swordsmanship from him. Oh, shit.

“By the way, I was able to talk to you because I learned the words of the congressman from him. ”

“I see. Then why is such a great man howling like this? I'm dying of stuffness. ”

“I was going to tell that story from now on. My ability to summon souls was literally a blessing from heaven to me, who had to raise a fallen family. Until we know the damage to his abilities. ”

“Your Majesty? Are you sick right now...? ”

My words make him suddenly look down and nod his head.

“Yes. It turns out that its power is not an exaggeration to say the curse. A cursed ability to consume the life force of my soul every time I summon it. ”

“Is it because your soul is exhausted that you feel sick even though your body looks so good? ”

“Yes.”

“I don't want you to know that. ”

“Of course I would if I knew. But there are no external symptoms that the soul is shattered. Right before it crosses the limit of its soul. ”

“Well, when did you find out? ”

“Just three months ago. ”

Three months ago? How long before I got here?

“And since then has my body started hurting like it does now? ”

“That's right."

Oh, my goodness. Some people are so unlucky. I think he can do something enough without doing that... Tsk, tsk.

“Three months ago, I knew the day I fell suddenly. That I'm going to die soon. But I couldn't have died in vain. When I die, I won't be able to reconsider the revival of Earl Frost. ”

It seemed like he was the only child in the family. In other words, if Lycaen dies, it is not a problem that he cannot raise up his family, but that his generation will be cut off at all. It's impossible to get married like that. Even if you get married, will you do the right thing at night?

You seem increasingly sorry for the man who was never jealous.

“So I've been thinking ever since. A way to resurrect Count Frost, even if I die. And after a month of deliberation, the conclusion called for you. ”

“Huh? Calling me is your way of bringing your family back to life? ”

“Yes.”

Is he too physically, or is his soul so sick that his head is spinning? Calling me is the only way to bring back your family.

But his eyes were too serious to see that. After all, the only way to solve the question is to ask.

“How the hell? ”

“You're using my body. ”

Phew, I heard so many strange things today, but my ears are weird.

“What? Do I use your body? ”

“Yes.”

“Does it make sense? ”

“It works.”

Well, maybe it's not my ears that are weird. Maybe it's his mind.

No matter what I thought, he continued to explain.

“One day I called upon a soul, and it suddenly pushed my soul out of my body and into my body. Literally to take over my body. ”

This story seems to be too serious.

“And in fact, for a short while, they took away my body. That's why I was able to think of calling you. ”

Oh, no matter what I hear, it fits so well both front and back to what the madman is saying. although, of course, the evidence is a bit far-fetched.

“Well, is that really possible? ”

“Of course. Anyway, that's why I finally brought the soul back. A soul who's actually been at war at my age. That's why you're here. ”

“Well, then why have you been silent until now? ”

“I had to make sure I could trust him. Who can receive my flesh and dream with me? ”

Shocks are coming in late. I don't have a body, but I feel like I've been beaten with a hammer.

And after the shock, I felt bad for some reason and my whole body was swept away.

I know what it feels like to be born as a child of a fallen family and carry the aspirations of a family. The moment I realized that I couldn't do it, I felt the emptiness and the grief. Anger at yourself that comes after that.

What his eyes are saying now. I could feel how he was feeling enough.

I know because I've been through it all.

It was fortunate that I was a soul that did not have the body. Otherwise, I'd be crying right now.

Me and him stared at each other silently for a long time. We didn't need to talk anymore. His eyes were telling him everything.

Then Lycaen asked me a hard question.

“Will you come into my body and fulfill my dream? ”

Seeing the eagerness on his face, I felt like I couldn't help but say something. And then one day, I opened my mouth and I was talking.

“You haven't even told me my name. my name is Jang Yun My family used to know me when I was sick. And now, of course, he's fallen. After all, I also entered the military with the goal of raising a family like you. But the war ended in vain, and I was struck by lightning. What's that supposed to mean? I know enough about how you feel right now. ”

He gave me an anticipated look. But my mouth doesn't come off well.

Isn't that true?

To put this all in perspective, I'm a ghost and I'm wearing Lycaen's body.

I looked into his eyes again.

Phew, this eye makes me unable to refuse.
